Help[Facts] Re: Names
in reply to a message by Nanaea
"Jodi" may be acceptable as a masculine spelling up in Nan Country, but down here in Redneckland, no guy's gonna survive to the second beer spelling it that way. Jody or Jodie, yes, but not Jodi. It'd be safer introducing yourself in the bar as Tinkerbelle.
And Nan, I'm really disappointed at my copy of Mills' "Dictionary of English Place-Names" (miraculously still unpacked), which has heretofore bluffed me through many an A-S name enquiry. No mention of Wyndham, even as an overpriced hotel chain. The boys at Oxford University Press really blew it this time.
